Mark Levin came down like a ton of bricks on people saying Trump’s China tweet was “race-baiting” on his show today.
Listen below:
Here are the tweets:
Shoplifting is a very big deal in China, as it should be (5-10 years in jail), but not to father LaVar. Should have gotten his son out during my next trip to China instead. China told them why they were released. Very ungrateful!

Now that the three basketball players are out of China and saved from years in jail, LaVar Ball, the father of LiAngelo, is unaccepting of what I did for his son and that shoplifting is no big deal. I should have left them in jail!

Levin says “race is irrelevant” and I have to agree. There’s just not much evidence to say Trump did this out of racism. Whether it was a smart thing to do is a whole question altogether…
